Medical Tomfoolery

Never sleep around a medic. Never get so drunk that you are unconscious. Never agree to let the medic practice procedures on you that you have never heard of. Like inserting a nasogastric tube, inserting a nasogastric airway, or inserting a Foley catheter. Medics were probably the kids growing up who were always sticking pens in their noses or inhaling beans. Male medics have this urge to stuff tubes in every human orifice extant. We think it's funny. Look at us funny and you might end up with a catheter slimed with surgilube somewhere the sun doesn't shine.
Two medics offered themselves up as guinea pigs for medical procedures tonight. One agreed to have a nasogastric tube put in. A nasogastric tube is a tube that doctors use to clean out your stomach in a hospital or take a sample of stomach contents. Well medics like it because we get to shove a tube down somebody's nose. I have a video of this dude drinking Mountain Dew only to have a buddy of mine sucking it out of a tube in his nose as fast as he can drink it.
The other guy put in his own Foley catheter. That is to say he smeared iodine on his penis while wearing sterile gloves, put lubricant on a plastic tube and shoved the entire thing in his penis! At one point, he was in so much pain he was nearly in tears and we all just nearly died with laughter.
I have a video of him doing this to himself. I laugh so hard when I watch it that I have to make sure I go the bathroom first. Medics are fun.
